Premier League Prediction Thread 2025/2026

[Dzwaafu11]

Liverpool won their game against West Ham after losing so many games and dropping points in the EPL and it has made the fans to complain and even seek for Slot removal, it is normal for the fans to react like that which is understandable when they are not getting the result they expect especially when the club spent a lot in the transfer window. Now one of the newly signed player Isak got his first goal for the club and they won by 2 goals to nil, can Liverpool keep up with this pace? Are they even back to their best form or is it that they won the game because it was a poor side (West Ham)?

Liverpool is actually suffering this season, they are weak. Imagine a team that spent a lot in the transfer window performing so bad, no one expected this performance we are Seeing from Liverpool this season, especially when got new signees, the fans begin to think that they will still be at the top this season.

However alot look confuse to me, because after all this loses Slot should be able to do something about it, but he fails to change anything. And this is affecting the club already, they have players that are doing well and can give out the result. But I think is slot Strategy that is affecting the team currently

[Stablexcoin]

Just one game win is not enough for Liverpool to prove that they’re back in their winning form, they’ll need to show some level of consistency to get that trust from fans and well wishers. Liverpool have been performing poorly and have lost in many games both in the champions league and the premier league. Alexander Isak is still yet to figure out his best self in the team, I just wish he’s able to cohabit well with the other team players. If Alexander Isak picks form now, I know it will be very hard that the whole team won’t progress. Arne Slot did well last season and everyone hoped he’ll replicate the same this season.

I agree that it is not enough to conclude that Liverpool are back to form, the win was also not against a tough team, winning West Ham is not what to take pride in, West Ham are in terrible form giving Liverpool a bonus points. Liverpool will prove themselves by staying consistent and winning the tough competitions they have, if they can win all the matches they have in this month then maybe they can compete for a good spot, i check all their coming fixtures, it doesn't look difficult for me, they should be able to win all if they are back in form.

You needed to see the joy Isak had when he scored his first premier league goal for Liverpool, he needed that goal to boost his confidence, maybe he might do better in their next fixture well let's see how it goes, Anyways I wasn't expecting that Liverpool would be this bad this season,  a team with a squad that's capable of winning the league again. Anyways Arne Slot has to do all he can to impress the board in this grace period that he was given. Well they're not in their best form yet and I won't use winning Westham that was already close to the relegation to justify that until I see them win consecutively and win a big team then I'll believe they're recovering their form.

What Liverpool needs now is some level of improvement and that is just it. If they can work on their play, then I believe they will improve in their performance on the pitch.

Following Reece James' outstanding performance against Arsenal playing in the midfield position and how he also had incredible performance against Barcelona playing in the same position, there's been debate among football fans on whether that is his natural position or not. Some are arguing that playing in the midfield position, the England international gets the opportunity of playing at his full potential while others are saying that he's better a right back but can be used as a makeshift midfielder. I want to know what you guys think of the right back defender who's now referred to as a world class midfielder by many.

James is one player that I can put my money, his really that good but the only problem he has is that his on and off the field. His prone to injury and that has really halted his career, James is supposed to be one of the top defenders in the world right now but his faced limitations just because his not always fit. He was just excellent in their match against Arsenal.

Good thing they won otherwise they'd be in a heated battle amongst the directors if to sack Arne Slot or let him stay for a while. They played quite well and linked up like they've not really done this season. West ham also proved to be compact likewise stubborn but that ome goal scored by Alexander Isak made them open up to attack. Gakpo remains Liverpool highest goalscoring player so far this season after that second goal. The real test should be against Sunderland, the players should win to fight for the manager.

The problem with this West Ham is that they don't know their right from their left, they struggle to play well every game but yet again, they should have tried to contain the amount of pressure Liverpool are coming with but they fail to take advantage as in try as much as possible to do to the Reds what Nottingham Forest did to them, that 3nil win for Nottingham should be a motivation to all the smaller side playing against Liverpool.  For now Liverpool manager have a long way to go and I'd suggest they let him do his thing till the end of this campaign before they decide to keep him or part ways.

It was actually a reckless stamping on Merino which resulted to his dismissal therefore spoiling the intensity of the game that we were all enjoying. Even with how Chelsea trying to manage the deficit it's still having a an effect on them because Arsenal now controls the midfield making it out so fast with an 1:1 equaliser from that Chalobah's goal. The game isn't as boring as any other games with a red card from one side, Chelsea are showing some toughness but Arsenal stands favourite to win still.

Chelsea plans has been spoilt because of the careless play by Caicedo i mean he has been playing rough and pushing players since and I knew before they gave him the red card that he will be sent out of the pitch and after he matched Merino, he pretended to be hurt too forgetting that there is VAR and when they checked it was indeed a red card and that has shattered everything even though Chelsea was playing more than Arsenal initially, the chance of Arsenal winning the game now is very high but I would've love to see them play with complete players to see the strength of each side.

Though it was an uncalculated step towards the ball which later became a stamp I still wouldn't blame Caicedo, he was only doing his duty as a midfielder l, a position has completely displayed much control for Chelsea. It was just na unlucky game for him. Luckily for Chelsea their spirit didn't bow out with their limited numbers, they played against Arsenal as though they were still complete 11 and made sure Arsenal didn't win the game. It's being very long I saw Chelsea with this high performance and I was proud of how they were able to face Arsenal to a draw at last.

R James natural position is right-back, but he can play just as well when deployed as a defensive midfielder, or even as a center-back. I see R. James has no problem whatsoever with his position being frequently changed according to the team needs he is a versatile type of player. This season, Enzo Maresca seems to be experimenting quite often with R. James, which I think is also part of the manager strategy to reduce the risk of his injury vulnerability. Of course, if R. James didn't suffer injuries too often, I think he would already be one of the best right-backs in the world right now. I remember before Madrid signed Trent Alexander Arnold, they had approached R James, perhaps they backed out because the player was prone to injuries.

Definitely we can clearly see that from his performance as not being stable on the pitch and this is one of the area that has mostly affected his career. We all know how James has been so good in the back line for Chelsea, and injury was the major reason he once fall out, we only believe and hope that he will not encounter more such injuries as his previous ones that took him out. I can only imagine how he played against Arsenal and felt that, this was the James I knew in 2021/2022 season. We only hope for positive play from him henceforth.

West Ham are in poor form this season, so it's understandable that Liverpool could win this match. If Liverpool still loses to a team like that, I don't know what else to say about their performance. Because with a series of defeats and a lot of criticism due to their poor performance, they need to bounce back and win this match, especially when the team they are facing is struggling and with better squad depth, there is no reason for them to fail to get three points again against an opponent who is objectively much weaker, unless they want to be bullied again.

However, it is still too early to say that they have returned to their best form, perhaps if they can be consistent in the next few matches, then we can judge that they have truly recovered their performance.

[BitcoinHunt3r]

I won't still say that they are basically back, we all know the pattern of their winning as in one game win and the other a lost. For me for now I will say they are not back, winning against West Ham is not a go ahead that they are back, Liverpool I know this season, are underperforming and it is something not encouraging to give them the accolades because they win against West Ham. What Liverpool needs now is some level of improvement and that is just it. If they can work on their play, then I believe they will improve in their performance on the pitch.

I also think the same thing, this win can't prove anything but honestly I hope this is a good start for them to get their confidence back, we know Liverpool have a good squad but somehow their performance has been very bad lately even many people say they are out of the title race and Liverpool are 9 points behind Arsenal. Indeed, it will be difficult to catch Arsenal who are almost always consistent but competing for the champions league zone is no worse than just being a spectator, yeah at least be in the top 4.

[Stable090]

I agree that it is not enough to conclude that Liverpool are back to form,

We shouldn’t even think Liverpool are back to form just because they were able to win their last match. Liverpool played against west ham that are currently struggling to avoid relegation this season, and West Ham had a red card in the match, and all Liverpool could get in the match is just 2 goals, and you think a team like that are back to form? Before am going to conclude that Liverpool are getting back to form is when I see them win their next 5 matches. We shouldn’t know that Liverpool are not back to form yet, and Liverpool can’t win the premier league this season.

Liverpool experienced a major change when met West Ham. Mohammed Salah hasn't become a starter, is a brave decision Slot. because as we know, Salah always come as starter to bring spirit for the team. And I think that strategy is complete enough to press the opponent. A good news is, Gomez is back, he came as starter to filling up a important position on right back. Yes, this position is very crucial after Trent leave, that position is main supply to directly passing ball to Salah on previous session. Sometime, that position is filling up by Szobozslai which make front be non-aggressive in attacking.

Mohamed Salah did not have too good performances for Liverpool since the last half of past season after he signed a new contract with Liverpool. His performance quality and contributions for Liverpool truly became worse in this season and it can be his personal issue plus the general problem of the whole team. Slot actually made very big and brave decision by putting Mohamed Salah on the bench in this match which is important for the club and himself.

This brave decision leads to an important win for Liverpool, a goal for Isak and a good performance from Wirtz. With three points from West Ham, Liverpool now already have 21 points and they have 3 points less than top four but surely they must maintain good performances and have to wait for chances to get in top four of the league again.

I remember before Madrid signed Trent Alexander Arnold, they had approached R James, perhaps they backed out because the player was prone to injuries.

The original position or Reece Jame is right defender position but he can play well as holding midfielder or central defender depend the tactician of Enzo Maresca and back up if any player get injury. Its typical players always lovely by every head coach can play well at multiple position and easily to make rotation if some players injury and Reece James can move depend on empty position leaving by main players.
This season, Reece James have played all 13 matches in premier league for Chelsea and scoring 1 goals with 3 assists, its make us remember well as top assists of Trent Alexander Arnold who consistent as right defender players always make assists and likely his position will replace well by Reece James as right defender players in Premier League has many assists in this season.
Often get injury last season, wish for this season Reece James can play all matches in premier league for Chelsea.

for this year Liverpool has not been able to play optimally and there are still many changes they have to make, for Muhammad Salah, he is no longer relied on by Arne slot and he has his own strategy to win in every match and last week against West Ham it was proven by playing Florian Wirtz Liverpool won 2-0 over West Ham, the German midfielder did play a very important role in the match even though he had just recovered from an injury during the international match, Arne Slot stated that the midfielder's contribution was very noticeable in the game scheme which relied on the addition of one player in Liverpool's midfield at this time.

Liverpool is actually suffering this season, they are weak. Imagine a team that spent a lot in the transfer window performing so bad, no one expected this performance we are Seeing from Liverpool this season, especially when got new signees, the fans begin to think that they will still be at the top this season.

However alot look confuse to me, because after all this loses Slot should be able to do something about it, but he fails to change anything. And this is affecting the club already, they have players that are doing well and can give out the result. But I think is slot Strategy that is affecting the team currently

Liverpool's current time is going very badly. They are not able to do anything good in any aspect at the moment. Liverpool's defense looks very weak. Although new players have been added to their defense to strengthen the defense, they are still not able to do anything good. Their attack is not able to do anything good. Maybe they are making mistakes somewhere, which is why such a bad form is seen. Maybe they will return to good form very soon. They got a good win, if they can regain their confidence, then maybe we will see them in the same form as before.

[Solodoski]

I agree that it is not enough to conclude that Liverpool are back to form,

I don't think that Liverpool are back in form, because they won a match against Westham. They might have won that match, but they did not play any better that they have been playing lately, its just that Westham has been very poor this season and I expect Liverpool to win even with their poor form. Before Liverpool can be considered as a team that is bad in form, they have to be consistent in at least 5 matches then we can begin to think they are back on form, for now they just won a match and I will not be surprised if they fail to win their next match.

[amihada]

For me for now I will say they are not back, winning against West Ham is not a go ahead that they are back, Liverpool I know this season, are underperforming and it is something not encouraging to give them the accolades because they win against West Ham.

I also think the same thing, this win can't prove anything but honestly I hope this is a good start for them to get their confidence back, we know Liverpool have a good squad but somehow their performance has been very bad lately even many people say they are out of the title race and Liverpool are 9 points behind Arsenal. Indeed, it will be difficult to catch Arsenal who are almost always consistent but competing for the champions league zone is no worse than just being a spectator, yeah at least be in the top 4.

Liverpool current form reminds me of Man United when they were trying to improve their form. In one match they could win, then in another match they were easily beaten by a weaker team. It's hard to understand what's happening to Liverpool despite still having most of the players who won trophies last season. Liverpool impressive squad hasn't been able to deliver maximum results in every match, but this victory should at least boost the players' motivation to continue collecting the points they are competing for in each match.

[Luzin]

I don't think that Liverpool are back in form, because they won a match against Westham. They might have won that match, but they did not play any better that they have been playing lately, its just that Westham has been very poor this season and I expect Liverpool to win even with their poor form.

Indeed, the result against West Ham is not the foundation, but at least it boosts the mentality of Liverpool players. They need to wake up from their slumber immediately. Next, they still have matches and opportunities to improve, even though their chances of winning the championship may be slim. What is certain is that Klopp must find the best player composition in the right positions so that the players' potential can truly shine. Klopp also needs to fix the defense immediately because I see Liverpool is very fragile at the back. As for the attack, Isak has scored his first goal, and hopefully that will continue.
